Is Canada’s Clean Economy Strategy Failing? | Karen Graham on Reality, Resilience & What’s Next

from Power Struggle · host Stewart Muir Media

As chair of the Resource Works Advisory Council, Karen Graham brings two decades of experience in public policy, resource development, and environmental governance. In this episode, she joins Stewart Muir to dissect Canada’s “clean economy” — from the promise of BC’s early carbon tax experiments to the patchwork of federal and provincial policies that followed.Graham breaks down the gap between climate ideals and economic realities, questions whether Ottawa’s approach has sidelined traditional resource sectors, and explores why public sentiment is shifting back toward pragmatism. From $350/ton penalties on gas to the return of pipeline politics, this is a deep dive into what worked, what didn’t, and what Canada must do next. Is a simpler, "all-of-the-above" strategy finally on the table? Can Canada balance emissions goals with energy security? What does the $144B “clean economy” really mean for GDP?This is a must-watch for anyone tracking the intersection of policy, prosperity, and public trust.Watch now and join the conversation.Learn more: https://resourceworks.comSend us Fan MailThe energy conversation is polarizing.
